It's because other countries benefit from that data. It's part of this administration's isolationist policies, not "security". That'll be why they are locking it up only for them.

Since the sabotage of the NOAA, I've noticed gaps in weather data feed. The Weather Network hasn't been as accurate (it ...

Oh well, I'll probably do it only because I need to see if the new Rust 1.88 is OK with that.

These Cyberpower units are pretty small now, but they are still futhermuckin heavy (there's no way around it with lead acid batteries, with the amperage you need to deliver for a reasonable period of time). There are lithium ion UPS's of course, but they are all expensive for lesser capacity. If ...

I got it set up and in place, just in time for thunderstorms to hit. I did charge it up for a few hours before turning it on to set sensitivity thresholds etc. and it was showing full capacity. (They ship with battery charge though I'd imagine that would depend on how long it has sat in a warehouse ...

On Saturday, but I waited until after the 25th to order a new one so it would go on next month's credit card bill :lol:

I got by with just one down here until now, by plugging the modem and router in with my good PC and just sticking the old box in the surge only outlets (it's off most of the time ...

I added those settings to my Arch /etc/pacman.conf. I like the coloured warnings (Ignorepkg warnings) and the column formatting. The only thing is I can just barely catch a glimpse of that C gobbling the dots, because the operations happen so fast on this machine. I'll probably see it next time ...

Linux 6.15.4
https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v6.x/ChangeLog-6.15.4

A lot of little fixes for a lot of drivers and things. WiFi, a lot of filesystem fixes (including ext4). Much of this stuff is discovered by instrumentation.

Here's an interesting issue, low powered mode in AHCI SATA ...

There's one LMG in the game, a .303 that's ridiculous. A LMG that's pretty much a one hit kill. Well, by the time you get 2 or 3 rounds in them they are more than dead :twisted:

I normally don't like LMGs because I like quiet guns, but at the end of Sonderzuge, after I've picked up the last intel ...

That looks great, I like the green gradient window decorations.

I haven't spent much time customizing it, the only thing I've done with XFCE is change some settings. It's a somewhat dark theme, good enough for an appliance that's meant to watch movies anyway. I'm still using the default "Mercury ...

Ahh, that sounds like Fort Rouge. It's a cleverly hidden facility down there, looks like dilapidated architecture from above.

That's where one of the main objectives are, you have to find two piece of intel. I'll just save you some time, one of them is in a crowbar crate, somewhere you'd not expect ...

I've been playing Sniper Elite V2 Remastered lately, I wanted to test it with my ntsync proton builds and it works beautifully. Previously, I had to disable Esync and Fsync or it would be crashipoo. It likes ntsync though.

I also noticed that it has Supersampling antialiasing (like Sniper Elite 3 ...

Have you noticed that EndeavourOS has a customized Pacman? It formats the output differently (columns with old version and new version) and the progress is shown with a pulsating letter C that gobbles up dots lol

P.S Actually it's just settings in pacman.conf. I could have these on Arch too. Color ...

Firefox 140.0.1... it's been two whole days.
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/140.0.1/releasenotes/



Fixed text contrast issues in the sidebar with some dark themes. (Bug 1971487)

Fixed a startup crash experienced by some users caused by DLL injection. (Bug 1973947)

This one could be ...

Mine works correctly with just Xorg and xset (which is what I have with xfce4-power-manager out of the picture)

That's like what I say... "say fuck and mean it". Softer synonyms (or asterisks) are worse

I've been looking around IceWM and I don't see anything that would configure displays. It's a simple window manager that traditionally got that from XF86Config (now xorg.conf or conf files in xorg.conf.d). Perhaps you had some configuration utility in the menu or something.

Nowadays I don't even ...

Here's another thing that Arch is taking away. I just went to build xorg-server (a -2 pkgrel) and I see they are disabling ACPI support, with -D linux_acpi=false. This disables the X server's use of acpid.

I guess they think everybody uses desktop environments with power managers that take over ...

I'm glad he hasn't lost his pensive sense of humour. That's so like him, that post

Firefox 140.0 Release Notes:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/140.0/releasenotes/

Vertical Tabs: You can now keep more — or fewer — pinned tabs in view for quicker access to important windows. Just drag the divider to resize your pinned tabs section.

Custom Search Engines: Firefox now ...

I've heard about that, but apparently this drama queen isn't really qualified. It's a difficult code base that few understand. Ripping out code and sewing new arms onto the octopus will break it for a lot of people.

Xorg is rejecting/reverting HIS submissions, not all. It's for reasons, like ...

IceWM 3.8.0 released today. This time, they did ruin something dear to me. They removed a lot of the old icons and it changed my nostalgic "Netscape" icon that I was using for Firefox, from that nice 1990's Netscape 4 icon to this. It's minor, but saddens me a little that those old icons are gone ...

There's a Firefox 140.0 today, but no release notes

https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/140.0/

The bus is almost photo realistic looking.

I actually hate when they change things like that years later. It wasn't the easiest menu system to use before, and I also don't want to have to figure it out again. I knew how to start a race, pick a car, get a new one when I wreck it etc.

Ahh Wayland. A small library and a bunch of protocol definitions, where any DE has to implement most everything themselves.

I like X11 because it provides APIs for people to write nice window managers that all work expectedly, with back end facilities provided by X. With Wayland, there will be a ...

Not far off. It doesn't matter that he lost (or is still losing) money on Shitler Twitter though, he's put it to good use in helping Trump subvert democracy. Megalomaniacs with a lot of money are very dangerous to civilization.

I'm just using Xorg's facility for display power management because xfce4-power-manager bites the weenie (though it works, it doesn't seem to like to let you disable it). Since it seems to be KDE/Plasma, you could do the same, disable KDE's power management and just use xset to control yours.

I had to use pacman -Rdd to remove linux-firmware because it's a dependency for the distro kernel package (linux-rpi-16k)

Then I simply installed linux-firmware-broadcom (it doesn't install the linux-firmware meta when you do that). Then pacman -Syu to get all the updates without complaint. The ...

All Arch based distros will be doing this. It's still going to wind up with most people having a shit tonne of firmware they don't need installed anyway, as they say, pacman has no way of knowing what firmware you're going to need. Even on ARM there's a bunch of unnecessary firmware for most devices ...

Hah, that's a great answer when some jumped up little prick says that

I'm sure glad I maintain my own firmware files. That's bollocks and it's just going to make it more difficult for people.
